Might be too late for us to make a push for European football, but Villa are playing some beautiful football right now. Just a shame Gerrard took a little too long to find our best side but I think we can really push for European football next year with a couple more signings.

I am shocked, shocked that Chelski bought success with KGB/ Russian mob money. Who knew?

They're not called Cheatski for nothing! Roman just wrote off 1.5bn in loans to the club as well. So much for FFP

They’re not called Cheatski.
It was a good run, who knows what the future holds.

They get sold for a cheap (relatively speaking) deal to a Tory doner who doesn't splash as much cash and they regress into a team hunting 4th place I suspect.

Chelsea have won more trophies than any other English club since Abramovich took over but that relied on him not being worried about losing money each season. That won't be a sustainable business model for the new owner, especially if they are American.

Cristiano Ronaldo scored a hat trick for Manure against Spurs. Tom Brady was there as guest of honour.

Losing money?
He paid 170 mill lent 1.5b and wants 3B for the club.
He was never losing money! Until a week ago at least ….

Hard to see how he would have got £3b with the stadium ownership restrictions.
Will be interesting to see the developments this week and if they are granted a license to sell the club. If the govt want to oversee the process it will not happen quickly.

If the government is involved it will be a clusterfuck. I still don't see how one's citizenship makes one aa criminal who deserves to have assets confiscated from them. If he bought it with proceeds of illegitimate activities, why didn't they do something about that previously?
City three points ahead with 10 games remaining. I'd say Liverpool need to win at Etihad to have a chance, something they haven't managed for a while.

City play Palace tomorrow morning and Palace are a bogey team for them. In the race for 4th, Spurs lost ground as all their rivals won meaning West Ham and Wolves are still in the race. At the bottom, Leeds marmalised Norwich, conceded a 90th minute equaliser and then grabbed a winner - scenes etc. Everton's position is looking worse and worse and maybe Lampard is not the man you need at this point. They have been in the top division since season 1954-55, only Arsenal have a longer run.

Not since November 2015, although they have had one Champions League win at the Etihad since - and a couple of good old fashioned hidings.

Very tough game for LFC on Wednesday. Aresenal in their best form of the season and Salah is a doubt.
Will be a cracking match
Will be a really good acid test for both sides - if Arsenal can be competitive and stand up to Liverpool that will bode very well for the run home and their Champions League chances. On the other hand, Liverpool can really build momentum by both closing the gap to a single point and doing it against one of the real in form sides.
This feels like a critical champions league qualification run for both Spurs and Arsenal. Both will be counting on a strong summer transfer window to bolster/refresh their squads. That will be a lot easier with champions league as a carrot. If Arsenal win against Liverpool that will be a big step towards finishing top 4 for Arsenal.

After Liverpool they have
Villa A
Palace A
Brighton H
Saints A
Chelsea A
ManU H
West Ham A
Leeds H
Newcastle A
Everton H -
